The Month of November is the month specially devoted to praying for the
Holy Souls. We all have family, relatives, friends and neighbours who have
departed this life and are now in need of our charitable prayers. I invite
you then
to join in this Novena of Masses and prayers for the Holy Souls. You will
do so by your attendance at Holy Mass each day during the Novena, or by saying
the Novena Prayers at home.

Novena of Prayer for our Dead

I take my loved ones by the hand and lead them to you God of Love.

Here are ................{name your loved ones}. Accept my love and thanksgiving
as I entrust them into your loving care. I want them to be free to be at
home with You. I ask that you save a place for me there beside them and that
you will be my loving presence in all the lonely moments that await me. Thank
you for the gifts of .................... {name your loved ones} in my life.

God be good to their souls. God rest them. God rest their souls and God have
mercy on them.

The Lord bless them and keep them. The Lord make his face shine upon them
and be gracious to them. The Lord lift up his countenance upon them and give
them peace.

Eternal rest grant to them O Lord, may perpetual light shine upon them, may
they rest in peace. Amen.

God’s Garden

God looked around his garden, and
saw an empty space. He then looked down upon the earth
and saw your tired face. He put his arms around you and lifted
you to rest, God’s garden must be beautiful, He only takes the best. It broke our hearts to lose you but
you did not go alone, for part of us went with you the day God called you
home.
